Reviews

Lovely wine this. Dense and rich but sits at medium weight, a sheath of cocoa powder tannins keeps dark plum and fig, date and nut characters internal, the wine stretches long and luxurious, supple and flowing. There’s lots of blue and dark fruit perfume with that mocha/coffee powder scent there too. Whiffs of bayleaf and sea spray complete a beautiful scent. Supple, succulent finish? Yes thanks. An elegant, athletic and fine cabernet wine which enthusiasts should line up for.
From the Batley Vineyard in the Wilyabrup subregion; hand-picked fruit, open fermented with wild yeast and matured in French barriques. Seemingly picked earlier than most, the colour not deep, a la the Englishman's claret of bygone days. On the plus side, it has excellent balance, no sign of green fruit, and can be enjoyed now as much as in 5 years.
